Question 3

Can I cook over pellets?

Accepted Answer

Before using pellets as fuel to cook over, be sure that they are labeled food-safe. Typically, hardwood pellets will be safe for cooking, while softwood pellets are not recommended to use for cooking.

Question 4

Will I get secondary burn with pellets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you will! When using the pellet adapter in your camp stove you can expect to get a beautiful secondary burn within 5-10 minutes of lighting your starters (depending on how many starters you use.)

Question 5

My fire blew out and is super smokey, how can I fix this?

Accepted Answer

Pellet fires are more prone to being blown out from gusts of wind. This is rare but can occur. If this happens while your fire is lit, there will immediately be an intense cloud of smoke. If this happens to you, take a long-stem lighter, light it, then place it near the secondary burn holes near the top of your camp stove, and let the smoke ignite. This will clear out the smoke and reignite your fire quickly.

Question 6

How do I add pellets to my fire?

Accepted Answer

It’s important not to add too many pellets at a time, as this could suffocate your flame and cause your fire to smoke and be extinguished. Use a small scoop to add pellets, sprinkling them evenly across the opening of the camp stove. Be sure to add pellets while there is still a secondary flame. Adding pellets after the fire has gotten too low will cause the newly added pellets to smoke and not light correctly.

Question 7

What kinds of pellets can I use with my Pellet Adapter?

Accepted Answer

You can burn virtually any type of wood pellet in your Solo Stove Camp Stove with Pellet Adapter. Each type of pellet will provide a different experience. Heating pellets are designed to be used as fuel only, and should not be cooked over. They are typically made of softwoods and will burn at a slightly quicker pace. Hardwood pellets (like  Solo Stove’s Premium Wood Fuel Pellets ) are a great option and will burn beautifully. If you want to roast s’mores or hot dogs, make sure that your hardwood pellets are food-safe. Pellet grill smoking pellets can also be used to burn with the Pellet Adapter. Softwood Pellets are typically made of a variety of softwoods such as pine and/or fir. These pellets can contain binders and additives, but can still be burned efficiently with the Pellet Adapter. These pellets should not be used for any cooking.
